make it one with lots of dual lane roads for us over excited hoons and so i can give everyone some external wastegate action in there windows haha :laugh: and plenty of driving this time rather than a 20 min drive and sitting for hours, id rather do a nice hour drive to different spots and then head to the bbq area or something :huh:

dont forget to organise a "good" chef to cook my meal this time too ;)

as its my first cruise I am up for just about anything, but as I will have my 2 daughters with me (7 & 11) a nice interesting destination with something for the kids to do at the end is mandatory. Otherwise the chances of me getting to do this with my family, ever again will be fairly low and its not an interest I am planning on following without them.

REEEEAAALLY looking forward to placing some faces to names too.

hahaha it will be kid friendly...i have two kiddies (boy and girl) aged 2 and 3 so its mandatory that the choices have things for the kids to do and play safely!! (hopefully this time my daughter walks away without concussion or a hairline fracture ;):huh: )

SHE WOULD BE GREAT -- she would go put it in some dirty (or course marinating it and seasoning it) then she would chuck it on the barby and leave it be..and seeing that Brad likes it so underdone its not funny im sure he will LOVE a charcoal piece of steak :laugh:

guys depending what you vote depends on what happens!

Once voting has finished i will make up maps, then you will get details on meet point, time and what to bring :P

ohhh the excitement begins :P

jus to throw some thin else in the mix ... what bout endin at Adventure world or something ??? Adventure world might be a lil pricey but ya get the idea :rofl:

there is nothing to do at adeventure world though :(

mcnamg takes off rose coloured glasses after coming back from gold coast after going to the 4 theme parks

nah in all seriousness thats a great idea lets the kids have some fun the big ones and the little ones :D

i personally aint leaving sight of my stagea in public, im paranoid i know but when i spent that much it aint getting a chance of being pinched. my parents mx6 turbo got broken into there a few years ago when we went for a few hours :rofl: oh the goodness of this f*kt up society hey

fair point .... i think the beauty of the stags is they kinda go unnoticed ..but bout 10 together might give the game away and get some unwanted attention.

Having said that i still like the idea can anyone think of any where that can offer reasonable security? Or i can bring my dog ..dobermanns love thieves :)

you guys can goto adventure world i dont mind ill just head home when u do :O i dont mind at all, its a fact of spending so much and not being able to insure it for whats its worth is why i dont wanna leave it anywhere. its a cruise car only with this engine, once the engine goes in another car and i put a stocker 26 or 26/30 in it then im happy to leave it anywhere.

paranoid is my middle name :mellow:

    • OK, next the shroud needs to come off and there are a couple of tricks. Firstly, there is a loom from near the passenger side headlight to the fans, coolant temp sensor etc and there is no plug to undo.  In my case I was OK to leave the shroud on top of the engine so I just undid the passenger side fan plug and about 10 of the clips which gave enough free wire to put it aside. The fan plugs were super tight, the trick I used was a small falt screwdriver to push down on the release tab, then a larger flat screwdriver to lever the plug out of the fan unit....be careful with how much force you apply! If you need to remove the shroud altogether for some reason you will have to deal with all the plugs (tight) and clips (brittle)....good luck. I removed all of the clips and replaced them with cable ties that I will just cut next time. Also, in the Red Sport / 400R at least, the intake heat exchanger reservoir hose is bolted to the shroud in 2 places with 10mm headed bolts; so remove them (the hose stays in the car; no need to undo it at the t fittings down at the radiator lower mount. Once you've dealt with the HX hose and the wiring loom, there are 3x 10mm headed self tappers holding the top of the shroud to the radiator; remove those.   The shroud then lifts out of the bottom mounts where it sits on the radiator, up and onto the engine out of the way. Simples
    • Ok, disregard my “rate them” comment, sorry for my unrealistic input
    • OK, now we are ready to get started. You need to remove the air boxes on each side for clearance. The cover is straightforward, undo the clips on the top and lift the front cover out of the rest of the housing. If it is tight you can remove the air filters first. The rear section of the airbox is trickier. On each side you need to remove the Air flow meter wiring which is held to the airbox with a clip; you need to get behind the clip on 2 sides if you want to remove it without breaking it - unclip the harder side and pull on the clip with medium force, then unclip the easier side and it should pop out The airbox is held onto the intake hose with a spring clamp; you need to get a flat bladed screwdriver behind the spring on both sides and pop them outwards. When you have got them in the right unclipped place they will stay there and the airbox slips out pretty freely. Put a rag in the intake to prevent anything getting dropped in there, and also to prevent you seeing that the turbo seal is leaking oil (as they do). Then. The top of the radiator is held by a steel plate, it is secured by 2x10mm and 2x12mm headed bolts . Remove them and remove the plate Also grab the bushings that hold the radiator to the plate on each side so they are not lost!
    • Next, remove the upper and lower radiator hoses, both are held with a spring clamp. While you are under there, tackle the Auto Trans cooler lines.  Again both are held on with spring clamps, and as mentioned above you should cap them on the radiator side with an 8mm cap, and on the car side loop them with a length of 8mm pipe - this will stop you losing a dangerous amount of AT fluid during the rest of the job If you've been meaning to add a sender for AT trans temp, this is a great time to do it; put a sender fitting into the passenger side line as that is the inlet to the cooler/radiator.
    • Next you need to remove the intake duct (as with pretty much every job on these cars), it is a series of clips you gently remove with a flat bladed screwdriver. They do get brittle with time and can break, and I have not found a decent quality aftermarket one that fits (they are all too soft or flimsy and don't last either) but the nissan ones are a couple of bucks each (ouch).  Once the clips are off (either 8 or 10, I didn't check) you lift the intake duct out and will see the reservoirs Undo the line into the radiator side cap (some bent needle nosed piers are awesome for spring clamps) and then remove the 4x 10m nuts that hold both in place.  I didn't get these pics, but remove the line under the radiator reservoir (spring clamp again) then remove that reservoir. Then you can get at the intake reservoir, same thing, spring clamp underneath then remove it. BTW This is a great time to put in a larger (+70%) combined reservoir that AMS makes..... https://www.amsperformance.com/product/q50-q60-red-alpha-coolant-expansion-tank/ They also make an Infiniti branded and part# version if that is your thing
